NEVER LIGHT A CANDLE IN AN A/C ROOM

A friend in our group passed away last
week due to carbon-monoxide
poisoning. It happened when she
lighted an aroma therapeutic candle
for the night in a room with air-
conditioner ON.

Due to lack of oxygen in the room, the
burning of the candle cannot
fully oxidize & thus forms dangerous
carbon monoxide. Carbon monoxide
will prevent oxygen exchange in the
lungs, resulting in the person
dozing off to a state of
unconsciousness & eventually death in
less
than an hour, depending on the room
size.

I am sending this e-mail out to you so
that you will be aware of such
danger when lighting aroma therapeutic
candles in any unventilated
room.

Please forward this message to all your
loved ones.
